Shreyas Talpade Reacted to death hoax
Shreyas Talpade has reacted to his death hoax. Sharing posts on Instagram, he assured his fans of his safety. He also hit back at trolls for ‘creating unnecessary worry’ and hurting his family’s sentiments.
His lengthy note read, “Dear All, I want to assure everyone that I am ALIVE, HAPPY, and HEALTHY. I’ve become aware of a viral post claiming my demise. While I understand that humour has its place, when it’s misused, it can cause real harm. What may have started as a joke by someone, is now creating unnecessary worry and playing with the emotions of those who care about me, especially my family.”
Shreyas Talpade said his daughter is anxious about his health especially after his heart attack last year.
“My little daughter, who goes to school every day, is already anxious about my well-being, constantly asking questions and seeking reassurance. This false news only deepens her fears, forcing her to confront more questions from her peers and teachers, stirring up emotions that we’ve been trying to manage as a family. To those pushing this content further, I ask you to pause and consider the impact. Many people have genuinely prayed for my well-being, and it’s disheartening to see humor used in a way that can hurt sentiments, cause
distress to my loved ones, and disrupt our lives. When you spread such rumors, it doesn’t just affect the person targeted-it also affects their family, especially young children who might not fully understand the situation but feel the emotional toll nonetheless,” his statement further read.
He concluded with, “I am deeply grateful to all who have checked in on me during this time. Your concern and love mean the world to me. To the trolls, I have a simple request: please stop. Don’t joke around at the cost of others and don’t do this to anyone else. I wouldn’t want anything like this to happen to you ever so please be sensitive. Chasing engagement and likes should never come at the expense of others’ feelings. Love Always Shreyas Talpade”
